| (c. 1670’s) fabric merchant- examined fabric very closely with his own, salf-made microscope (which was very well made). Began studying fabrics in microscope. Saw/drew all basic shapes of bacteria, sperm, and microscopic single cell organisms. Father of Microbiology. |

Term
| (c. 1860) modification of cell theory: all living things come from other living things (biogenesis). Resulting debate: biogenesis vs. spontaneous generation. |
